Little baby

E was about to sleep. He snuggled very close to me. I turned around to face my little boy.

Me " Hi little baby"

There was a short pause of 5 seconds before E responded.

E " Mummy, what is my name?"

Me " E. H."

E " Call me E. H. Don't call me little baby"


I was like err??? You are not even 3 yet and you are showing clear signs that you want your own identity already? My little boy has really grown, and matured. I am proud of you, son!
